Presumably the crew would have to take their meals where they had their bunks?

Dear Michael Williams, The mess where you eat is determined by your rank. This is where you live your off duty life and is where everything and everyone of equal rank you are going to relate to takes place. The modern boats of today are much, much larger and different arrangements maybe in force for eating arrangements. Thank you for the interesting question. Very best wishes, WooWooMad.
